Story takes itself very seriously compared to other novels. High translation quality and a unique premise make this very worthwhile read.

Underrated kingdom-building story. Historical commentary (from the future) is used for world building, but also eliminates some of the suspense from the plot.

Not really a generic "transported away" novel as the synopsis and cover suggest. The novel focuses more on how the MC glitches the world he... more>>

The author writes a decent Machiavellian character, and explores the traits and motivations of protagonists and antagonists engaging in the struggle for power.

The author very cleverly reverses common tropes in the re: genre to build the protagonists character. Interesting, but translation quality goes down in later chapters.

Good if you like stories with somewhat slow pacing. Story arcs never fully resolve the conflict, slowing the plot progression down.

Try out Reverend insanity, if you haven't already. Some of the novels you read gave vibes of reverend insanity.
I saw your list, Most of the novels i've read that are on this list are very good, But i saw that there are some novels that i consider good that aren't on this list so i like to recommend some that are on the top of my head
a wild last boss appeared: An isekai, But it has mystery and it actually has a story to say
overgeared: Korean VMMORPG that it's long, while staying fun and interesing along the way, some say that the beginning is somewhat weak so keep it in mind
i favor the villainess: I don't really consider this ''good'' but i liked it
To put some personal opinion, ''The novel extra'' writer is really good but somehow can't make a good ending, if only he could...
I must be more picky, most likely cause I've read all of these and would not put most of them on a list with this title.
Personally, to me, most of these are tr*sh webnovels.
